Founded in September 1952, the San Francisco Amateur Astronomers is an association of people who share a common interest in astronomy and other related sciences. Our membership consists of people from all walks of life, educational backgrounds and ages.

This website is an extension of our community and offers multiple ways to stay up to date on SFAA News and Events. Our Calendar and Lecture Lists are always available online and display all of our events throughout the year. For interaction with club members and other astronomy enthusiasts in the Bay Area, make sure to check the Bulletin Board for possible event discussion and other information. If you prefer to be notified of SFAA news and events by email, then sign up for one of our Mailing Lists and receive club announcements or our monthly Newsletter delivered right to your inbox.
